Trey Anastasio, guitarist and vocalist for Phish, is releasing his new solo album entitled "Traveler" in October. Based on samples and clips, it's going to be a return to the progressive rock that Phish is known for, particularly in their early works.

The wait for a batch of new material from Trey Anastasio has been a long one, but if the Phish front manís new
single Scabbard, which came out today, is any indication, heís used that
time wisely. Scabbard finds Anastasio melding his early influences
(King Crimson, Frank Zappa, Genesis) with more recent ones (Radiohead,
The National, Sigur Ros) into a psychedelic art-rock sound thatís far
unlike anything heís ever released before.

Really cool Trey album. Not very similar to Phish at all,
much like his last few albums. This time around, there is some experimentation
of some tracks, a few awesome guitar solos, and wonderfully composed sections
ala Frank Zappa and Genesis, much like old-school Phish. Thereís also some good
songwriting, as can be expected of Trey of course. Iíll need to listen more, but this is a grower
for sure, and can only get better each time. Highly recommended.
